Question

A trash can is shaped like a cylinder. The radius of the trash can is 12 inches, and the height of the container is 31.5 inches. Which measurement is closest to the volume of the trash can in cubic inches? 2,375.04 in3 14,250.26 in3 57,001.06 in3 4,750.09 in3

Answer 1

`14250.26{in}^(3)`

Explanation:

For a cylinder:

`v=\pi{r}^(2)h`

where v is the volume, r is the radius of the cylinder, and h is the height.

`v=\pi({12}^(2))(31.5)=\bold{14250.26{in}^(3) }`
